Red-banded Conks (Complex Fomitopsis pinicola)Observer
fungal_w3bkyDescription
Growing on a live pine. The droplets on the bottom are not resin, but water from a heavy rain, I believe. Spore print light cream. Did not notice bruising. Smell was earthy and not unique. I welcome ID suggestions.

Hairy Oyster Mushroom (Panus lecomtei)Observer
fungal_w3bkyDescription
Trying to log as Panus rudis, but the ID name is automatically changing in this app. Not sure why. I've tried common and Latin names. Any suggestions? Found on an oak stump after a heavy rain. I regularly visit here so will spore and taste for more data in a day or two.
Update June 29 - turns very hard and tan with maturity.

Bright orange -photos taken near dusk, and color cannot be appreciated. Clustered on a stump. Found after heavy rain. Did not see the famous glow in the dark hue. Some orange staining with handling. Spore print yellow.
